You’ll get faster download, but your upload speeds drop off a cliff
Use another fan to make the wifi circular, then your upload speeds shouldnt be hindered
If you make a series of tubes, you can route from the router and reroute back to the router, creating an information highway through, what we call in comp science, a “loop”. Depending on which side you install the turbo, you can replicate the same tech your ISP charges extra for in “speed boost”. If you go bi-turbo—one in inbound and one in the outbound tubes of the loop—you can generate effectively unlimited speed, where onlyfans used in your inbound and outbound tubes limit based on their RPM. This is why I use RC plane turbines. It’s loud, but I’m streaming YT in 480.
That’s absurd. You don’t need to route to or from your router. That’s it’s entire job. Do you also run computations for your computer and speak on behalf of your speaker? Complete madness.
I am a computer programmer, this is exactly how it works. Why else do you think electronics have fans in them if not to blow fresh, crisp wifi in and stale, soggy wifi out?
The trick is rewiring the outlet to 240v. More power = more signal.
Doubling the voltage for a given circuit would result in four times the power, P = V^2 R (*This is wrong, it’s over R, see comment below). So 6db
Will probably make the signal noisy, so I’d avoid this. I would recommend just putting the router in a booster seat, so it’s higher off the ground.
No no, everyone knows you’re supposed to put a mirror behind it, duh.
Funnily enough this may actually have a positive impact
People used to create tinfoil, tin can or wok based reflectors for WiFi to guide the omnidirectional signal into becoming a directional one.
I think the reflective part of some mirrors is essentially tin foil, so it probably would have a mild boosting effect in the direction of the mirror
Edit: in fact if OP’s fan has a rounded metal cage on it, you could take the front half off and you’ve basically got a WokFi setup there, with added danger
Also if it’s close enough, the metal of the fan itself serves as a pretty decent antennae. You can accomplish the same by taping a fork to the box!
It’s the silliest little lifehack yet wrapping a wire around a fork, then wrapping the other end around the router works so well
I’ve heard about this but not had loads of time to read into how it works and how effective the algorithms are. Do you happen to know about it in depth? I’ve wondered for a while how much efficiency is actually improved by the beamforming and what the limitations are
Like I’ve read about cantennas that fire 802.11g over several hundred meters, which in my understanding is obviously is out of reach for regular WiFi antenna even with beamforming algorithms (or is it? I actually don’t know)
